Wrinkles are lines, folds or grooves in the skin that form as we age, however exposure to the sun, environmental pollution and smoking accelerate this process. These appear in various areas of the body, being most common on the face, neck and hands. Wrinkles are mainly due to decreased collagen and elastin production in the skin, as well as other external and internal factors.
Causes
Wrinkles can be caused by a variety of factors including:
- Natural aging: Over time, the skin loses its ability to produce collagen and elastin efficiently, leading to the formation of wrinkles.
- Sun exposure: Ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun damages collagen and elastin in the skin, accelerating the aging process and contributing to the formation of wrinkles.
- Smoking: Smoking reduces blood circulation in the skin and decreases collagen production, which can cause wrinkles.
- Repetitive facial expressions: Facial movements such as frowning or smiling excessively can cause wrinkles in specific areas.
- Nutrition and diet: A diet poor in essential nutrients and antioxidants can negatively affect skin health.
- Genetics: Genetic predisposition can also influence the tendency to develop wrinkles.

We know that prevention is key when it comes to skin aging. Maintaining a proper skin care routine and protecting yourself from the sun can help prevent early wrinkle formation. However, we understand that wrinkles may be inevitable over time.
Our laser treatments are ideal for both preventing and improving existing wrinkles and working on volume loss, as well as improving the overall texture of the skin.
